Went out and GPS'd the new trail today since it is all flagged. There is a lot of work to do yet, hopefully we can get it done. There is still a fair amount of corridor to be cleared and then quite a bit of benching and some crossings to deal with before we can open. We need your help!!

Using current estimates of cost per linear foot, the trails built by volunteers at Stocksdale/Walnut Woods represent approximately $90,000 in value added to these public lands. This is based on lower end estimates as of 04/15/11.

PARK HOURS

Stocksdale Park is open all hours now.

Local Eateries (No national chain restaurants allowed)

Ginger Sue's: Breakfast and Lunch. Great food in a neat little place. The "official" restaurant of the trail crew! 12 W Kansas St

Seva: Great Indian food. Across I-35 on the north side of 152 and Flintlock. Near Chipotle.

Sorella's: Another little deli. On Missouri street just east of the square.

loop above the lake, so Dustin and I went out to push the cliff trail east
